So what you are saying is that you have absolutely no evidence for your assertion? Instead you try to link to websites that provide a definition of 'throwing a Trump' when in fact that is what you are doing by making claims that are not backed up by evidence. As he would say. Sad.

Have you ever wondered why in the years immediatley following the credit crunch we had long term sustained snow in europe in the midst of climate change. This sort of snowfall had not been seen since the 1980s, yet know one seemed to notice this large period of snowfall and cooling in the middle of all the talk about global warming.

NoI have not wondered about it, because I understand, at least some of, the science involved.

I recognise that, just because some places are cooling at some times of years, that does not mean that the planet as a whole is warming.In fact, I see that global warming may easily lead to local cooling. Where I live, the gulf stream does a pretty good job of keeping the place warm.But the mechanisms that drive it may be brought to a halt by global warming.

Donald Trump, as far as I can tell from what he says, does not realise that distinction.Of course, it's possible that he does understand it but lies with a view to getting votes and support for his short termist policies.

and then went on to dicuss it in a trumpesque fashion of a political manovering about the question.

How so? He explained it in a very to the point manner: cooling in one part of the globe doesn't say anything about the temperature trends of the globe as a whole. How is there anything political about that explanation?

Trump. I thought this was the naked >SCIENTISTS<, ie ones who look at the data and make logically sound arguments based on research and experimentation ? Rather than just shouting people down on the internet. It is a forum of ideas not, and I use the asterisks very deliberatley, a s**t throwing platform ?

These are easy to find if you type 'global cooling' into the search. It was actually really big news and i cannot believe you need evidence ?, I cant believe theres not a thread on TNS about it. seems that in 2013 2014 the average temperature dropped.

There where also massive longterm snowfalls across europe, and I believe bad snow in the States, although that seems to be just a little highter than average.

This is what I was talking about earlier when I said you were cherry-picking. You are looking at only a small fraction of the data (for 2013 and 2014). Climate is subject to random fluctuations from one year to another, which is why it's important to look at trends over a long period of time in order to find any that are there. Since you posted a link to NASA, I presume that means you trust them as a source of reliable information. If that's the case, then you should look at these graphs that examine decades worth of data instead of a few years: https://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs/

"Seem to imply" it either implys or does not. It would not imply anything n this context anyway, other than the very obvious impication that you are asking the obvious

The only way I can see confirmation bias applying would be if only the data supporting one conclusion was put into the graphs while all other data was intentionally left out. That, however, sounds like a conspiracy theory to me.
